Corporate social responsibility is viewed as a source social progress, because of that companies allow appreciable resources and expertise for this kind of activities in benefit society, but this type of practices could be seen as a competitive advantage for those who undertake this concept. Entrepreneurs from any domain are interested to create activities which may have a positive impact on society, in this context universities from United States of America choose to open their expertise for anybody who what to learn.
